The New Yorker
Though the story goes a country too far and gets lost in its dénouement, the movie is, for the most part, a playful and giddy delight. - 67
IndieWire
One of those late-summer releases that’s just good enough to make you wish it were better, The Spy Who Dumped Me aims to please every step of the way, but it never earns the nearly two-hour running time. - 65
Film Journal International
It’s a deliriously silly, often preposterous movie...but director Susanna Fogel keeps things moving too quickly to leave much time for complaints. - 63
The Seattle Times
Thanks to McKinnon, “Spy” is a fun summer picture that is truly, weirdly special. - 60
Variety
The Spy Who Dumped Me is no debacle, but it’s an over-the-top and weirdly combustible entertainment, a movie that can’t seem to decide whether it wants to be a light comedy caper or a top-heavy exercise in B-movie mega-violence. - 60
TheWrap
Not every eccentric tweak of hers lands, but it’s a wonderful feeling knowing McKinnon sees potential for humor every time the camera’s on her, even for a reaction shot shoved into an action sequence. - 50
The Hollywood Reporter
McKinnon dives head-first into every imbecilic scene, and Kunis stoically pretends to believe her BFF is sentient. But the movie around them is a wreck, and no amount of cloak-and-dagger will keep that secret for long. - 42
Entertainment Weekly
The new comedy, The Spy Who Dumped Me, is a mirthless, dead-on-arrival dud.
